I don't think they've won a game since they clinched the title have they?

Out of the others I would love to see Halifax get promoted.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

I’m with you on that, but I’m slightly biased in that it’s either a half-an-hour drive or an hour on the train for me, and I happen to like a couple of pubs not far from the Shay.

Our recent record there is hideous, mind. I think I’ve seen us play there 4 times (including the pre-season friendly ahead of our first season in non-league), and we’ve lost every time. From a quick check Town haven’t won there since 1988; was that the infamous burger van game?

Edit: it wasn’t; looks like that was a couple of years later

And we didn’t win then either - it was 2-2.

We also lost there in an FA Cup replay 1-0 on an absolutely freezing night. That would have been about 1988.

Halifax would be my first choice, then Alty, then Barnet. Not that I like Barnet, but we always take about a thousand there and the Aalst lot would probably go there again in good numbers.

As good as local derbies seem on paper Chesterfield and maybe Halifax will be ruined by police advice / police overkill , early kick offs, possible TV schedule interference etc.

The police are going to have as much trouble with changing kick-offs as everyone else. Pre-match drinks going to be hard at the best of time.

Apparently the gaffer was on holiday last week... mental if it's true. Lost all momentum going into next season and now they can't even reach 100 points despite the good season they've had.

I think if you have scored 103 goals in a season you can take it easy for the last few games .

That’s nothing - Truro in the NLS have so far had April games on the 1st, 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th, 11th and 13th!!!

I’ll be honest, I thought we lost. Time clouds the memory, but I was a bit distracted that day. I’d driven to Manchester before the game to spunk what was quite a lot of money to me at the time on an engagement ring for my then girlfriend and had the ring in my glovebox.

Because of that I was late to the game and ended up parking down not the most accommodating looking Halifax street, and was shítting it in case someone broke in and nicked it. A bit of an irrational fear looking back, but that was definitely my dominating thought as I sat a few seats from an injured Darran Kempson.

As I said, time clouds the memory but, if I’m not mistaken, didn’t a young Jamie Vardy play for Halifax that afternoon?

Good man. Googled it but couldn’t find a definitive answer anywhere.

Yes

Hallo. Mein Name ist Jürgen Klopp. Zehn Spiele in zwanzig Tagen sind für jeden eine Sauerei. Ich meine, das sind doch fitte Fußballer, die in der Lage sein sollten, jeden Tag ein Spiel zu bestreiten. Meine Mannschaft besteht aus schwachen und erbärmlichen Weicheiern, die sich beschweren, wenn sie zwei Spiele in der Woche spielen. Mein Team ist Scheiße.
